New details released in Doctor Philips homicide

Jorgete Acarie found shot to death in August

Investigators have released more details in the death of a Doctor Phillips community mother.

In August, Orange County Sheriff's deputies were dispatched to Jorgete Acarie's home after a security alarm was tripped.

Deputies said they found a sliding glass door was slightly open, and then saw Acarie lying in her bed in a puddle of blood.

Officials said Acarie had been shot several times, including in the head. Her 2-year-old son was in the bed next to her body.

Deputies had to kick down the bedroom door to get the toddler out of the room.

According to the report, one deputy had been to the home before for domestic violence calls. She said she knew Kristofer Gould would be the prime suspect in the murder "due to previous stalking incidents."

When investigators searched the home, they said they found the power had been shut off from the outside box. Deputies said they found fingerprints belonging to Gould on the sliding glass door along with a crow bar that they believe was used to pry open the sliding door to the bedroom.

Investigators said they also found a black backpack with Gould's Costco membership card inside.

When deputies started knocking on doors, nearby residents said they were jolted out of their sleep early that morning by the sound of a half-dozen gunshots.

Acarie's family members quickly pointed the finger at Gould.

Her other son told investigators his mom said if anything ever happened to her, that Gould did it.

Even Gould's stepmother told police he threatened to kill Acarie.

On the floor near the Acarie's body, crime scene techs said they found 15 shell casings from a Glock handgun.

The report said that's the same type of gun Gould borrowed from one of his co-workers just a few days before Acarie was found dead.

Gould was arrested a few days after Acarie's death when the Volusia County Beach patrol found him illegally camping on the beach. He is charged with first-degree murder.
